Spotlight On a Community-Supported Fishery - Modern Farmer
Briefly

Skipper Otto provides a vital link between consumers and local fishers, allowing customers to support sustainable fishing practices and ensuring transparency about the origin of their seafood.
"The fishing way of life is endangered, and local fishers are losing access to markets," says Sonia Strobel, emphasizing the dire situation faced by independent fishers and the importance of CSFs.
Consumers like Allison Hepworth appreciate knowing how and where their fish is caught, reinforcing the community connection and the importance of supporting local independent fishers.
Founded in 2008, Skipper Otto aims to revitalize the local fishing industry, countering the challenges posed by large corporations and promoting the livelihoods of small-scale fishers.
